See Morris Hill near Dumfries offers easy access via farm tracks. Views to Criffel and the Solway. A convenient hill walking stop when passing through.

Dungavel Hill is a quick grassy Marilyn near Tinto in South Lanarkshire. An ideal short activation when driving north, despite the wind and rain.

Moncreiffe Hill near Perth has Iron Age hillforts and fine views. I climbed through Woodland Trust trails from Rhynd Road. A convenient motorway break.

Arthur’s Seat is an extinct volcano rising above Edinburgh. I climbed from Holyroodhouse on a crisp winter’s day. An easy urban SOTA activation.
